Ray, I think you nailed the look you were after, any further & you might be sorry. Just enough to show regular use but not being totally neglected.
Just for a comparison, before & after shots might help. I know its a black engine but your lighting may even make the black look a little grey. If you have another that you're looking to weather, maybe a little more on the drivers, similar to the rest of the engine here, but slightly less overall, with just a little less above, showing slightly more black above.
I actually love the Selkirk front end & means all business to me. I think looks awesome on the later Hudson's with the PT tenders & Scullin disk drivers. Some NYC Berkshires also sported that front.
Great job!
Joe
